A little remember about who is Alicia Sacramone. He began her path to becoming a World Champion as a toddler in dance classes. Even a very young age, Alicia was very talented and took tap, jazz, and ballet classes. When she started doing cartwheels while running errands with her mother at age seven, she was quickly enrolled at Gymnastics and More in Woburn. Trained from the very beginning by husband and wife team Mihai and Sylvia Brestyan, Alicia learned a lot from the Romanian immigrants. She quickly progressed through the compulsory levels of the sport and soon had quite a pile of medals and awards from various state, regional, and national meets.
